Maybe there is a reason he isn't used the same way as PT and Sproles. I'm sure if he were good on screen plays or catching out of the backfield this coaching staff would be more than willing to use him that way.

If you are going to compare Ingram to Ivory then you are missing one major category...fumbles. I haven't followed the Jets much but I did see some of the game the other day and in that short time span I saw Ivory cough it up. He's def a harder runner but the dude has a habit of losing the ball.

Horrible fit. I think when he's in, the opponents D just walks the Safety right up to the LOS. It would be kinda nice to see him in an Offense that pounded the ball like Tampa does but the Saints will never be that team with Brees and the rest of the firepower we have.

Updated with Ivory and all Saints running backs for week 3. As you should know, Ingram did not play this past week vs the Cardinals and Robinson got late 4th quarter carries the past week in his first action as a Saint.

The season is still young, and we are clearly in the driver seat in the NFC South. It was good to see the rookie get in on a road game and get some kinda meaningful carries. 7 rushes, should have definitely been 10 or more. Robinson should be plugged in more and more as the season goes along. Let him carry til he fumbles, and if he really wants to be a great back, he'll learn to protect it more.
